@AudibleLocket Contemplate your own death and fully accept it. If you dont reject or fear death, what is there to reject or fear?

The Buddhist have a meditation where they contemplate their own decaying corpse as a way to accept the ultimate impermanence. Many people dont like this for obvious reasons - they fear death and dont accept it. They would rather sweep this under the rug and focus on the warm and fuzzies.

This is a great place to start.

Learn Vipassana techniques. Vipassana meditation is very effective at cultivating equanimity. I won't try to describe it here because I'm not Vipassana teacher. You can find great resources on the web, or better yet with a local meditation centre, or retreat.

Meditate daily.

Eat clean, for well being & clarity.

Establish a dream board, visit it daily, add to it, allow it to change as your dream expands. 

Write down arising thoughts / perspectives, and their opposites on paper daily.

Release emotion at every inward arising opportunity, and relax your mind and body, over & over, all day, everyday.

Over time, the nature of thought / duality will become more and more clear, as will your mind. By default, the wonders of your true nature will fill your body, mind, and life.

A Vipassana retreat would be perfect for equanimity. That's the essence of Vipassana.
